Odds: SF@ Carolina

Anything 3 or less for SF is a win for us. There is a built in -3 for the home team.  At least that is my understanding. If I'm wrong educate me.

 

Sportsbook has SF -1.  Home team gets 3 points, which means Vegas thinks SF would be a 4 point favorite on a neutral field and a whopping touchdown favorite at home.

 

Like I said, incredible disrespect.

The home team getting an automatic -3 is somewhat of a common misconception, like one dog year equalling seven human years.

When I used to hangout at the books in Vegas regularly I saw as being closer to -2/-2.5 if the teams were perceived as an even matchup.

But take a team like Houston at home against say SF, they aren't gonna adjust the line an automatic anything for them being at home.

This has been my experience anyway.

    • He is also a player that has that "lock room cancer" tag.  We don't see much of the full picture, but I try to stay far away from that type of player. He is historically not good at losing, and we tend to do that a good bit. Not a good fit in my opinion.  I respect the skill, though.
    • I honestly can't think of a teams first line basically telling the coach to fug off like last night's line of Aho, Jarvis and Svechnikov did to Rod. 
    • Do you even know what the term "below average" means? Because I'm genuinely not sure if you do. There are 32 QB's in the league, which means to be playing "above average" he'd have to be the 15th best QB at the league, and even then, that's in essence the "average NFL QB" still. Even going by these rankings, which have him 20th, that by itself is the definition of "below average", and that's before you consider there are multiple QB's ranked below him in this list that I'd 100% trade him for in a heartbeat. Again, no matter what you think the eye test tells you, he's made 28 starts and has a grand total of FOUR games over 247 yards.  Drake Maye has made 10 starts, all with a significantly worse group of pass catchers than Bryce has had, and he already has 3 games over that number himself. I don't need to see or know anything else beyond that to determine he is a below average QB in this league so far and I don't know how anyone can honestly argue against that.  If he was a Lamar Jackson type putting up 75+ yards rushing on a consistent basis, then you can look at those passing yards differently, but that's not the case here. Could he still improve and get to average or better?  Of course. But you're trying to extrapolate a few throws/drives/moments from a handful of games and trying to say that makes him even an average, if not above average, QB in this league.  Which is just nonsense when the players you're comparing him to have played at that level for full seasons or their entire careers.
